Description
The Santa Barbara County Water Agency is pleased to announce four Water Wise Landscaping Workshops that will be held between May 16 and June 6, 2015. These three-hour classes will introduce homeowners, residents and business owners to the fundamentals of creating gardens and landscapes that thrive in our semi-arid climate and use limited water resources wisely while looking beautiful all year round. All Water Wise Landscaping Workshops will be presented by Green Gardens Group (G3), an educational organization whose qualified trainers provide an interactive and fact-filled overview of how to develop a successful California-Friendly Garden. Workshops will cover the following latest sustainable materials and techniques: -Understanding your garden as a mini-watershed -Creating a living soil sponge that holds onto water -Treating rainwater as a resource -Removing turf without chemicals -Selecting the right plants for the right place -Managing irrigation to eliminate waste and runoff and more. Workshops are FREE to attend but pre-registration is requested. To reserve a space or for more information, visit www.waterwisesb.org/workshops or email Riley Hubbell at riley@loacom.com.
